Kleemann tune on new 5.5 bi-t...690HP
Pretty sick. 690HP & 704ft/lb.
And that's just a tune. Sheesh.

Renntech tune " With a tune only, the 2012 CLS63 made 669 horsepower and 734 ft-lbs of torque (569.13 horsepower and 624.94 ft/lbs of torque at the wheels). "

That tells me Renntech may have more room.

Different dyno, diff day, conditions, and different marketing LOL- I dont take too much stock in whats higher. I take stock in the faster more powerful car at the strip. So far RT has tangible proof in my eyes.
Agree Tom... lets see the K car vs. the RT car in the real world.

Matters not son - - - just look at the 1/4 mi et's to date. These cars will be in the 9's very soon. 800 BHP is readily attainable. If Porsche can make 600 BHP from 3.6 liters out of the box . . . well you do the math.

I am not sure what to make of your post....are you agreeing that tuners' crank hp claims mean very little? Actually 1/4 mile ETs are not optimal to ascertain power...ETs are more of a function of traction off the line. I would say 1/4 mile trap speeds are more indicative of power. You rarely ever see tuners mention 1/4 mile trap speed...I was responding to people comparing RENNtech hp claims vs Kleemann hp claims. As I said before, the crank #'s thrown around mean very little to me...I would rather see before and after dynos. Would I prefer to see 1/4 mile trap speeds out in the real world too, yes...but like I said you don't see many tuners taking the cars directly out on the track...they usually have their customers post the results.

Is that your way of trying to tell me that you are my long-lost daddy? I am not sure what to make of your post....are you agreeing that tuners' crank hp claims mean very little?
